My name is Shannon. I’m a singer and songwriter living in Seattle. This is my happy place. May it be yours too.

Oscar, The Hospice Cat

Meet Oscar. He lives in a nursing home in Providence, Rhode Island. When he curls up on a patient's bed and stays there, the staff know that it's time to call the family. It usually means the patient has less than 4 hours to live, giving them peace of mind and a chance to say goodbye to their loved ones. So far, Oscar has accurately predicted 50 deaths. Amazing, right?

I've always felt that cats have some sort of extrasensory perception. All of my feline friends have been extremely sensitive to my thoughts and feelings. Have any of you had similar experiences with your kitties?
